"Storytelling in Sixteenth-Century France: The Negotiation of Shifting Forms is an innovative, interdisciplinary examination of parallels between the early modern era and the world in which we live today. Readers are invited to look to the past to see how, then as now, people turn to storytelling to integrate and adapt to rapid social change, to reinforce or restructure community, to sell new ideas, and to refashion the past. Like the change that it reflects, the telling of stories is itself a dynamic process, in which narratives are constantly renewed, revised and reformed. The stories of an era not only assume multiple, changing forms, but also surface in unexpected domains that seem, at first, incompatible with the storytelling enterprise: domains like medicine and diplomacy. Identifying the commonalities between the storytelling approach in diverse domains helps us better understand the conventions of a specific time and place (in this case, different decades in sixteenth-century France) while simultaneously revealing sites of resistance where these conventions were tested. This understanding heightens, in turn, our awareness of the stories shaping our own era"--

The 1641 rebellion is one of the seminal events in early modern Irish and British history. Its divisive legacy, based primarily on the sharply contested allegation that the rebellion began with a general massacre of Protestant settlers, is still evident in Ireland today. Thousands of witness testimonies (the 1641 Depositions) housed in Trinity College Dublin became central to one of the most protracted and bitter of Irish historical controversies. This controversy has never been satisfactorily resolved as successive generations invented and re-invented the past in response to contemporary political developments. Propagandists, politicians and historians all exploited the surviving evidence at different times to justify their implacable hostility towards Irish nationalism and the Catholic religion. The 1641 'massacres', therefore, like King William's victory at the Boyne (1690) and the Battle of the Somme (1916) played a key role in creating and sustaining a collective Protestant/British identity in Ulster, in much the same way that the subsequent Cromwellian conquest in the 1650s helped forge a new Irish Catholic national identity. The original and wide-ranging themes chosen for this volume, along with the high standard of the contributions from leading international scholars, will ensure that this edited collection becomes required reading for all those interested in the 1641 Rebellion, as well as the history of early modern Ireland and Europe. It will also appeal to those engaged in early colonial studies in the Atlantic world and beyond, as the volume adopts a genuinely comparative approach throughout, examining developments in a broad global context.

Coexister dans l'intolérance.Le titre donné à ce recueil sur l'édit de Nantes, dont on célèbre le 400ème anniversaire en 1998, pourra étonner tous ceux qui associent l'Edit au concept de tolérance. Si l'édit de 1598 met un terme à près de 40 ans ou presque de guerres civiles, le mot même de tolérance n'y figure pas. Les analyses recueillies dans ce volume montrent que l'édit de Nantes, aboutissement d'un long processus social, politique, culturel et religieux, énonce des règles pragmatiques non pas de tolérance mais de maîtrise de l'intolérance religieuse par le politique.Le propos, qui s'éloigne donc du raccourci hâtif, s'appuie sur la contribution d'une trentaine de spécialistes d'horizons intellectuels ou confessionnels très variés. Les textes s'ordonnent autour de plusieurs axes intitulés programmatiquement ainsi : La date de l'Edit, Autour de l'Edit, Négociateurs, Réception, Interprétations et L'Europe des paix religieuses. De l'analyse de l'événement lui-même dans son déroulement chronologique aux interprétations globales, c'est un très large panorama qui est ici déroulé dans le souci de présenter une vision aussi autorisée que possible d'un événement important, notamment pour comprendre l'identité passée et présente du catholique et du protestant en France.
